NOTE 14 – BUSINESS COMBINATION

On January 31, 2020, the Company acquired all of the membership interests in Incentive Technology Group, LLC (“ITG”), a Virginia limited liability company, for the purchase price of $255.0 million (subject to post-closing and working capital adjustments).  Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, ITG is an information technology consulting firm that provides cloud-based platform services to the federal government.  The acquisition is expected to augment the Company’s federal government business. The acquisition was not significant to the Company’s financial statements taken as a whole. The acquisition of ITG includes provisions that adjust the consideration transferred for excesses or shortfalls in the stipulated amount of working capital as of the acquisition date, as defined.

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method. The preliminary allocation of the total purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of ITG is based on management’s preliminary estimate of fair value as of the acquisition date and is subject to revision until the purchase price adjustments and valuations of intangible assets and goodwill are finalized, which will occur prior to September 30, 2020. The Company engaged an independent valuation firm to assist management in the allocation of the purchase price to goodwill and to other acquired intangible assets. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net tangible assets acquired was approximately $235.6 million. The Company has allocated approximately $188.3 million to goodwill and $47.3 million to other intangible assets. The goodwill recorded as part of the acquisition primarily reflects the value of providing an established platform to leverage the Company’s existing digital interactive technologies and domain expertise, synergies expected to arise from providing end-to-end customer solutions to a combined client-base across all channels, as well as any intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The weighted average amortization period for the amount allocated to other intangible assets in total is 5.7 years from the acquisition date. The intangible assets consist of approximately $46.4 million of customer-related intangibles that are being amortized over 6.9 years from the acquisition date and $0.9 million of marketing-related intangibles that are being amortized over 0.9 years from the acquisition date. The ITG acquisition is treated as a deemed asset purchase for income tax purposes; therefore, goodwill and amortization of other intangibles created via this acquisition will be amortized for income tax purposes over 15 years.

A prior acquisition’s purchase agreement included additional consideration in the form of two warranty and indemnity hold back payments, one for approximately $1.9 million to be released in the second quarter of 2020 and the other for approximately $1.2 million scheduled to be released in the fourth quarter of 2022. The two warranty and indemnity liabilities were recorded at their fair value at the date of the acquisition discounting the liabilities at 3.0% and 3.25%, respectively.
